Does anyone have any photos of Lugers being manufactured at any of the production plants? DWM, Mauser, Spandau, Krieghoff, Bern, Vickers, etc. I am talking about photos of different stages of manufacture of the various parts...

It just occured to me that I don't remember EVER seeing any, even in reference books...(which I no longer have). Were these things all destroyed during or after the war?

And how about AIMCO and Krauswerk? Photo's in articles or advertising literature?

Patrick and Frank Rial, anything like that in the documents you two have collected?

I think it would be neat to see the machinery and jigs used to produce them... and it would be a great addition to the history pages here on the forum as well...

-please pardon the ramblings of a bored and aging Parabellum enthusiast and engineer...
